Forums - Sales - Huge milestone! PS3 surpasses SNES!

It's finally happen the PS3 has surpasses the SNES

10 Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) 19.31 6.48 23.33 49.12
11 Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) 23.35 17.17 8.58 49.10

Other then America both regions are completely different, the SNES was really big in Japan, but not so much EMEAA compared to the PS3. Congrats PS3 next up will be the NES or X360, let's see hoew high this bitch can go!



Around the Network

The relatively small presence of the SNES in EMEAA has always surprised me. Nintendo did not really make headway in Europe until about 5 years ago.

I feel like the PS3 is the Genesis, and the 360 is the SNES in this case, just pulling ahead.

Congrats to the PS3...well deserved.

Making it into the top ten!!!!



Nice to see it has entered the top 10. Truly a great gaming console with great exclusive games..Here's hoping to a playful future for the ps3.

EMEAA was PC land; the ZX Spectrum, Commodore, Atari, etc. were the dominant plataforms there until Playstation came pushing the console market.

atleast they are beating nintendo in some way.... =p



Playstation All-Stars is one of the best games I've played this gen, and is the most fun I've had in a game this gen.

next stop NES!! and hopefully the PSP, GBA and Xbox 360 =)

I thought the Wii was the next Dreamcast

Also, not really a MASSIVE milestone, we saw it coming for some time. When it passes the GBA then I'll be impressed.

I have to wonder where this gen will stop! DS will end 1st, that's a given. Wii will likely end up 3rd, behind DS and PS2. The PSP MAY end up 5th, but looking at WW sales it looks unlikely...

I think 360 and PS3 will end up 6th and 7th, but in which order? Heck, this gen has been full of surprises, who's to say they can't go even higher!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Sega actually did very well in the genesis era for EMEAA, Nintendo were the one that didn't push the region. The lack of support = indifferent consumer base.
